Is anyone else working full-time and still building a SaaS on the side?
Hey everyone, just sharing a bit of what I’ve been up to and hoping to get some advice and feedback. I work full-time as a cleaner during the day, but after work, I dedicate around 4–5 hours to building my SaaS projects. It’s been a challenge, but I’ve been staying consistent.
So far, I’ve launched Lenscape – a simple, free-to-use image search tool. It’s basic for now, but I plan to add more features over time. My second project, Craftiadz, is nearly ready – just wrapping up testing and debugging. Hoping to open it up for user testing today or tomorrow.
Would really appreciate any feedback on the tools or suggestions on how to get early users. Also curious – if you’re juggling a job while building your SaaS, how do you manage your time and keep momentum?
Lastly, I’d love to hear about any ad platforms or channels that have worked for others in driving early user acquisition. Where do you recommend running ads to get noticed?
Thanks in advance!

I am as well. We should collab if you want to run a sale with us and drive traffic. We're just launching and giving incredible deals for devs who onboard their software to sell with us right now... We can also help you get data on bugs and friction if you'd like!
Reach out :)
@yakuraapp Hey, that sounds cool! I’m definitely interested, could you share a bit more about how the whole thing works? Like what kind of exposure or support you guys are offering for devs launching their tools? Would love to understand more before jumping in.
